Great views, great weather, great house

5 of 5

We stayed at this property in December to get out of the Tennessee cold. The weather was above 80 degrees every day of our stay. Absolutely crazy! Loved that we were able to walk to Captain Hooks to rent a boat and buy bait. We spent every night fishing off of the dock. The dock lights are great. Owner provided us with restaurant recommendations that came in handy. Made us feel like locals!

We come back every year!

We come to stay at this home every winter. We choose it because it has two dining areas (one with great water views!) and we can keep our boats right out back. This is a great rental-well equipped with plenty of kitchenware, a clean pool, and perfect bay and ocean access. There is a gas station (Captain Hooks) 10 seconds away. Other rentals we have stayed at have forced us to motor miles just to get to a fuel station. You can also walk to a few restaurants. This is our fourth year at the house, and we will be back again.

Nice View

2 of 5

We stayed at this bayfront home on Vaca Cut from 2/10/13-2/23/13 with our 2 teenage daughters. While the view and location are both nice, this home leaves alot to be desired. It is falling into disrepair and while we stayed there the air conditioning unit needed to be replaced so we spent 2 days out of our vacation dealing with repair men in and out of the unit. The floors are filthy, so make sure you keep your slippers on after you shower. It gives one the feeling of a fish camp rather than a vacation home. The "splash pool" leaks and while we did not use it, I felt obligated to monitor the water level and fill it on a daily basis. The lock to the back sliding glass door was also broken, which my husband ended up fixing as this made me very nervous. The lounge chairs are old and ratty and sorely in need of replacing, but if you are looking for a place with a boat dock and easy access to either the bay or ocean side this is it. The current in front of the dock is also very strong at times and this is not the ideal spot to swim or snorkle unless you are very experienced.
This home sure could use some love! Would not stay here again.

Owner's Response: Sometimes you simply cannot please people. This is a prime example. To say this home is in disrepair is insulting. This home is maintained to the highest standards, with a full time staff on call. Yes, the air compressor gave out. It was promptly replaced, no questions asked, and no cost spared.

The floors are swept, wet mopped, and vacuumed after every renter. This renter went to the beach, tracked sand into the home, then complained about how the sand felt between the tile and her feet.

The pool does not leak. I don't even know where this critique comes from. Maybe the renter did not realize that wind and sun may cause water to evaporate from a pool? We also have a dedicated company to maintain the pool on a weekly basis.

These renters broke the lock to the sliding glass door. When we offered for our staff to replace it within two hours of learning about this, they refused and fixed it themselves.

The lounge chairs are in great shape, and there are plenty of them.

Finally, to complain about the current is laughable. Yes, oceans have currents, especially at bridges or cuts. That is the reason other renters have caught lobsters, tarpon, snapper, grouper, snook, and a host of others right from our dock.

Great fishing right from the dock

5 of 5

We stayed at this home after our previous booking cancelled on us. What great luck! We had no idea the fishing from the dock would be so amazing. We caught 16 different species of fish! SIXTEEN! We caught sharks, grouper, snapper, tarpon, jacks, parrotfish, and so much more.

The house has plenty of room for dining, with two dining tables and a kitchen with new appliances.

Highly recommended for large groups, die hard fisherman, or those looking for a great view.

Great location.... Incredible fishing!!!!!

5 of 5

The location can't be beat. We fished of the dock and caught more types of fish than you can imagine.
The owner was great to deal with. Nice splash pool. Just sitting in the screened proch and watching the boats go by was amazing.
Add to that the manatees, sea turtles, dolphins, and jumping sting rays in the vaca cut, it was always an adventure to see what was coming by next. I would definitely stay here again.
